    Interview with Jerome Sage Butler (Grandmaster Sage), reasoning on the topic, "DREAD LOCKS".
    Numbers 6:5
    “All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.”
    Song of Solomon 4:1
    “Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.”
    Song of Solomon 4:3
    “Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within thy locks.”
    Song of Solomon 5:2
    “I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.”
    Song of Solomon 5:11
    “His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven.”
    Isaiah 47:2
    “Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.”
    Judges 16:19
    “And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.”

    I will never cut my hair again, I will never conform to the babylon system. If it is harder for me to get a job thats fine. The Most High will guide my path in the natural way like my hair.

      I've worked for huge multinational corporations and professional service firms. Discrimination against dreads is not accepted. I'm a melanin deficient guy in senior management and will protect anyone's right to expression. Not to say some individuals will not try to make an issue of it, but that should be brought to HR/management's attention. My experience with folks with dreads is they are generally having much more active mind / enthusiasm.

      A lot of the videos I've seen talking about locs pretty much dismiss the idea that "only black people can have them"... both from a cultural perspective, historic, sometimes spiritual, but usually just because "if you have hair, you can grow locs, they happen naturally".

    Thank you as I write in tears. I'm a Hispanic women light skinned with dreads. Since a child always wanted to have them on me. People LOOK at me and say what have she done to beautiful curly hair. Well that was my culture who still don't understand me. I'm very spiritual my hair feels good filled with great energy. I have suppressed to long. Being someone inside not matching my outside. I'm true to myself and my taino ancestors who had matte hair. It's spiritual not fashionable to me. My spirit is happy and my soul. Don't care if the looks anymore. I am love kind and don't judge. I feel this weight lifted from the words that you have spoken. Thank you 🙏

    I normally do not comment on videos... Thank you Seala Media for this post! When I was about to graduate from grad school I began to let my hair freeform and lock how it wanted to. My mother (a Christian Jamaican btw) told me that I would not get a job or advance to a Ph.D program wearing my hair that way. So I combed my locks out and straightened my hair for a interview with a doctorate program. I didn't get a spot in the program and felt so lost because I conformed to what my mother thought I should look like in order to be accepted. Well now I have started my locks again but I was getting regular maintenance. Lately I've been thinking that I hate it but I thought that I needed to get them twisted regularly to look nice when I go to work. However, I do not feel the connection I once felt when my hair was just doing it's thing. I want to be able to do my job and let my hair be without the judgment. Maybe I should just stop caring about what others think and whatever happens will be how the most high/universe or my higher self wants it to be. Thank you again.

    I back-combed mine. Had them for an amazing 5 year journey. 34.5” when the time came to let them go. Lots of good conversations and experiences with people of different color, religion, and/or origin. I also received plenty of nods of understanding and words of respect. I researched before I committed. Then went into it spiritually with watchfulness and curiosity and openness with respect to the traditions that are not my lineage. Mine was an awakening, positive journey in a region with plenty of racial tension and religious conservatism. I plan on doing it again.

    I've always loved locs so much and I've always saw them as a crown or a mane to me people with locs have always looked like beautiful warriors of nature and love they give off strong beautiful vibes and I've always wanted locs and I always worried about people being angry with me for doing it but I realized true spiritualists would be happy for me, I loc my hair because I wanted to stop fighting my hair, it wants to be matted, I want to be closer to nature, I want to pick up on vibrations better, I am a survivor, I am a warrior, i am patient and forgiving, I see that the world is so broken, I know that I am wise beyond my years but I still hold my innocence, im free and I refuse to conform to babylon, I am dedicated and I love everyone I meet, I love mother nature and I thank her everyday for what she does for us, since the very first time I saw someone with locs I've always felt in my heart that this is what locs symbolize and so much more.. I've noticed that the universe has been speaking to me all the time now since I started my locs.. I feel more beautiful with them than I ever did without them. I cry as I write this.

    Locs are a natural, not *necessarily* a hairstyle. It’s not necessarily a tradition, or come from anyone, it’s just the default form of all hair if you let go of vanity. No white man is copying a black tradition unless he feels that way in his heart, why even care if it makes him happy and it’s the hurting anyone man, spread love.

      The great thing about hair is that it usually grows back, I've had dreads for 30 years, my Mom hates it but I am an adult and there is nothing she can do about it, be patient, one day you will be your own man and you can do what you want.

    My brother, nuff respect. Hear me now. I'm Jamaican, born and bred. Though my upbringing did not take place in JA (migrated to U.S. at an early age), my Jamaican roots reach deep, deep, down into the African, the Arawak and finally God's eternal soul which was made accessible to us through YESHUA, Lord and Savior. Many of your words and experiences resonate quite squarely with mine but there are some that don't which I believe are important enough to address because of my perceived mission here in this realm. I believe I couldn't pass up the opportunity to speak these words with you without shirking my responsibility.
    First I'd like to say this about the Arawaks whom I believe God uses to communicate with me: Jamaica is located on the Equator in the heart of the Earth which was just one, solid, land mass at its birth (in your mind, push all the land masses of the Earth together and see where Jamaica falls). For this reason, the indigenous people there will be dark skinned. The texture of their hair, their height and weight will also be affected by this relentless sun and continuous rainfall. Ever wonder why Arawaks named it Xaymaca, "Land of wood and water"? Could it be because it was where the vital elements of life (wood represents the material and water represents the spiritual) originated and proliferated? These words had to be said here as I've read much of what many have spoken about the Arawaks/Tainos and never hear these facts mentioned.
    As for our disagreement: About 22years ago, I, like you,came to Christ. Appx. 3months after I was baptized, I locked up my hair. Why? God spoke clearly to me telling me that I was to be as natural as I was made to be. Since I was a professional at the time, I did my hair neatly non-freeform, what I like to call "cultured locks". Oh, how God spoke to me through my natural hair!!! He took me so many places during that time, one of which was to Samson, in the Bible, to teach me about the power of my locks/cultured locks. I was sold! To this day, I wear my hair the same way and have no intention of wearing it any other way including the way you do. Don't judge me, brother! What God has for you is for you. What He has for me, is for me. Twisting the natural hair to lock it is still natural hair and, I'm a witness, cultured locks does NOT hurt the hair follicles AT ALL and it allows you to still remain your natural self as God made you to be.

      DarkManX Tv, First I’d like to say I am GreatWall OfMexico and thank you for providing me with the above link to your channel. I arrived there and listened to the appx. three hour discussion you had with the Yenkunkun Pickibo (This does not sound like a Jamaican derived name) tribe reps and was very highly amused. Second, as it will presently become clear to you that we are not in complete agreement with respect to your thesis/platform, I implore you, in your responding to my challenges to your reasoning, to please try and refrain from personal derogative name-calling and I will respectfully do the same for you. By “personal” I mean, it’s ok to call an argument idiotic, but it’s not ok to call each other an idiot.
      Now then, in my humble opinion, the so-called American “Aborigine” is a misconstruction and a farce. And the reason for my perception is that these people seek to deny the majority African and European blood running through their veins and identify only with their possibly 2% , if any, Amerindian blood. I find that to be absurd.
      Y'see, I was born on the island of Jamaica and for many different spiritual reasons, I sincerely believe that I have a real connection to the Arawak people native to that island. I do not know if I have any Amerindian blood in me, in fact, but with all my heart I believe that I do. Nevertheless, I will never take a DNA test to find out because I think it’s irrelevant and furthermore, whether the Synagogue of Satan says I have Amerindian blood or not, I am still Xaymacan and I know I have an Arawak spirit residing inside of me. Despite my connection to my Arawakan spirit, I will never deny the majority African and European blood in me and claim to be Aborigine Xaymacan.
      I believe the U.S. Lumbee tribe probably got it right as that tribe is comprised of the product of various mix of peoples found only on the American Continent (Amerindian, Africans and Europeans) with the argument that because all these different peoples came together here in the American Continent and reproduced, their offspring, a new and wholly unique tribe, is native to America and is therefore Native American.
      I feel really sad for the people of the so-called Yenkunkun Pickibo (can’t help but think of the Jamaican vulgar terms “pum pum” and “picki picki head” when I hear this name) tribe for they are in complete denial of the truth about themselves. I hope they wake up soon to realize that they are all Children of the One True and Living God and are therefore entitled to "ownership" (by this I mean one owns whatever one possesses and not the fiction Satan's Synagogue has defined ownership to mean) of any land or living space in all of Creation and not just on the island of what is now called Jamaica.

I have gone natural. And was considering letting my hair lock. And now even more so. I am definitely going to as you say let nature do what it wants. Because it is what God would want. Thank you.

    This is what I needed to hear. I have epilepsy, because of it I developed a severe case of anxiety... it was so bad I would get anxiety when I had something as simple as a doctors appointment or sunday mass (its embarrassing to me when someone sees me haveing a seizure or finds out about my condition, which makes even writing this very hard). I grew my dreadlocks 4 years ago when I first found out about my condition, it helped me cope with my own insecurities. I shaved my head about two months ago because I was tired of being pre-judged and in some cases even looked down upon simply for being white and having locks, most hair salons would refuse to serve me when I wanted to get them tightened. I feel like im missing a limb or a loved one... my hair was not only a social security blanket for me but also a part of me. I immediately regret my decision... now my journey must start from the beginning, I look forward to having my protection and peace of mind back.

    I came across your video as by luck! I let my hair lock on its own since last September and I’m very proud as I feel more rooted. I’m puertorican by the way and I have some ropes for dread lol.
    Everyone told me to go get it pro done....but I said one day no more brushing, no more styling!! I have always grown my hair since day one (all my toddle pics have me with long hair) and have been growing my beard since my first born son and he’s reaching 22 years old in 1 week!
    My beard causes ridicule in a secular world! My reasons? Law of the Nazarene! Not to mention I’m an Israelite as well. All I tell people is “if mans beard was supposed to be kept short, then it would stop growing by design just like arm hair, eyebrows and eyelashes stop at a certAin length....by spiritual design!” They NEVER have an answer!
    My boys from the islands started referring to me as Rasta, but I couldn’t understand the co-relation with that and locks....until now! I’d like to say that I’m a natural man and wish to remain that way! Shit I don’t even take aspirin lol
    My beard I cut every 3-6 months and my hair I cut bald every 7 years!

    Exact reason i grew mine were because i got tired of braids,hair cuts,flat irons,combing thru my hair daily. For me it's really more of a spiritual and comfort of me being comfortable being myself. I've come to embrace my hair more & more because i'm happy with it in it's natural state even i get it retwisted and sometimes put into two or four braids. I never got the hype of doing it for fashion. I use to be one that clowned people for having them if they didn't look well kept and boom now i have them and i explain to people(the ones who i ise to be like) how clean and healthy they can be if you take good care of your hair.
